Method
-
Pour the milk and sugar into a saucepan and heat stirring occasionally until the sugar has melted, then simmer over a medium heat until thickened and reduced by about half– about 10 minutes.
-
Stir in the butter, cocoa powder and vanilla extract and whisk until smooth, then continue to cook for another 5 minutes.
-
Tip out into a bowl and allow to cool.
-
When cool enough to handle, take a small spoonful and form into small balls. You should have enough to make 21.
-
Roll 7 of the balls in the chocolate sprinkles, 7 in the coconut and 7 in the nuts, then cover and set aside in the fridge to firm up.
-
Serve from the fridge.
